إِشَعْيَاءَ 55

١ 1 «أَيُّهَا ٱلْعِطَاشُ جَمِيعًا هَلُمُّوا إِلَى ٱلْمِيَاهِ، وَٱلَّذِي لَيْسَ لَهُ فِضَّةٌ تَعَالَوْا ٱشْتَرُوا وَكُلُوا. هَلُمُّوا ٱشْتَرُوا بِلَا فِضَّةٍ وَبِلَا ثَمَنٍ خَمْرًا وَلَبَنًا.

Ho, everyone who thirsts, come ye to the waters. And he who has no money, come ye, buy, and eat. Yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.

٢ 2 لِمَاذَا تَزِنُونَ فِضَّةً لِغَيْرِ خُبْزٍ، وَتَعَبَكُمْ لِغَيْرِ شَبَعٍ؟ ٱسْتَمِعُوا لِي ٱسْتِمَاعًا وَكُلُوا ٱلطَّيِّبَ، وَلْتَتَلَذَّذْ بِٱلدَّسَمِ أَنْفُسُكُمْ.

Why do ye spend money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Hearken diligently to me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

٣ 3 أَمِيلُوا آذَانَكُمْ وَهَلُمُّوا إِلَيَّ. ٱسْمَعُوا فَتَحْيَا أَنْفُسُكُمْ. وَأَقْطَعَ لَكُمْ عَهْدًا أَبَدِيًّا، مَرَاحِمَ دَاوُدَ ٱلصَّادِقَةَ.

Incline your ear, and come to me. Hear, and your soul shall live. And I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the faithful holy things of David.

٤ 4 هُوَذَا قَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ شَارِعًا لِلشُّعُوبِ، رَئِيسًا وَمُوصِيًا لِلشُّعُوبِ.

Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander to the peoples.

٥ 5 هَا أُمَّةٌ لَا تَعْرِفُهَا تَدْعُوهَا، وَأُمَّةٌ لَمْ تَعْرِفْكَ تَرْكُضُ إِلَيْكَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِكَ وَقُدُّوسِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ مَجَّدَكَ».

Behold, thou shall call a nation that thou do not know. And a nation that does not know thee shall run to thee because of Jehovah thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel, for he has glorified thee.

٦ 6 اُطْلُبُوا ٱلرَّبَّ مَا دَامَ يُوجَدُ. ٱدْعُوهُ وَهُوَ قَرِيبٌ.

Seek ye Jehovah while he may be found. Call ye upon him while he is near.

٧ 7 لِيَتْرُكِ ٱلشِّرِّيرُ طَرِيقَهُ، وَرَجُلُ ٱلْإِثْمِ أَفْكَارَهُ، وَلْيَتُبْ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فَيَرْحَمَهُ، وَإِلَى إِلَهِنَا لِأَنَّهُ يُكْثِرُ ٱلْغُفْرَانَ.

Let the wicked man forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts. And let him return to Jehovah, and he will have mercy upon him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

٨ 8 «لِأَنَّ أَفْكَارِي لَيْسَتْ أَفْكَارَكُمْ، وَلَا طُرُقُكُمْ طُرُقِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says Jehovah.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا عَلَتِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، هَكَذَا عَلَتْ طُرُقِي عَنْ طُرُقِكُمْ وَأَفْكَارِي عَنْ أَفْكَارِكُمْ.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

١٠ 10 لِأَنَّهُ كَمَا يَنْزِلُ ٱلْمَطَرُ وَٱلثَّلْجُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَلَا يَرْجِعَانِ إِلَى هُنَاكَ، بَلْ يُرْوِيَانِ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَيَجْعَلَانِهَا تَلِدُ وَتُنْبِتُ وَتُعْطِي زَرْعًا لِلزَّارِعِ وَخُبْزًا لِلْآكِلِ،

For as the rain comes down and the snow from heaven, and returns not there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater,

١١ 11 هَكَذَا تَكُونُ كَلِمَتِي ٱلَّتِي تَخْرُجُ مِنْ فَمِي. لَا تَرْجِعُ إِلَيَّ فَارِغَةً، بَلْ تَعْمَلُ مَا سُرِرْتُ بِهِ وَتَنْجَحُ فِي مَا أَرْسَلْتُهَا لَهُ.

so shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth. It shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please. And it shall prosper in the thing to which I sent it.

١٢ 12 لِأَنَّكُمْ بِفَرَحٍ تَخْرُجُونَ وَبِسَلَامٍ تُحْضَرُونَ. ٱلْجِبَالُ وَٱلْآكَامُ تُشِيدُ أَمَامَكُمْ تَرَنُّمًا، وَكُلُّ شَجَرِ ٱلْحَقْلِ تُصَفِّقُ بِٱلْأَيَادِي.

For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace. The mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the fields shall clap their hands.

١٣ 13 عِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلشَّوْكِ يَنْبُتُ سَرْوٌ، وَعِوَضًا عَنِ ٱلْقَرِيسِ يَطْلَعُ آسٌ. وَيَكُونُ لِلرَّبِّ ٱسْمًا، عَلَامَةً أَبَدِيَّةً لَا تَنْقَطِعُ».

Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree. And it shall be to Jehovah for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
